"And he was the largest snake in the world."

"Really?"

"Yeah. They say he could eat an entire village in one gulp."

"Jisung stop scaring our kid.", Chan said.

Jisung was telling Seungmin the story of the Titanoboa. The little always loved Jisung's very exaggerated stories.

"Okay okay, he won't eat an entire village. But..."

Jisung squinted at Seungmin.

"...I hear he eats little puppies!"

"Ahhhhhhhh!", Seungmin yelled, jumping up and running away.

"Han!", Chan yelled.

"Hehehehe."

Seungmin ran into the kitchen, where Jeongin was watching an Australian YouTube teach people how to make cheese.

"Do we even have that stuff?", Jeongin asked himself.

"Innie appa! Sungie say I get eaten by snake!"

Jeongin looked up from the phone.

"Well he's lying. Want to help me make cheese?"

"Okay. Long as snake don't come in kitchen."

Back in the living room, Chan was using the group laptop purchased by Minho, to look up some entertaining places around town.

However, when he clicked on the search bar, he saw something he didn't expect.

"Huh? What is this?"

"What's wrong Chris?", Felix asked, entering the room and sitting by him.

"Look at these recent searches."

Felix looked at the screen.

The recent searches read as follows:
"how to fix your smile"
"is my smile ugly"
"why do I smile like this"
"do braces make you look weird"

"Oh...this must be from Seungmin.", Felix said.

"But why would he search this? His smile is beautiful."

"He probably doesn't believe that. He gets a lot of crap from people about it."

"You really think that...Seungmin doesn't love his smile?"

"It's possible."

Chan sighed.

"Well, I'm going to help him to love his smile.", he said.

"How can you do that?"

"The real question is...how can we...do that."

"Ah...I don't get it."

Chan smiled, thinking of his plan to get Seungmin to love his smile.

Jeongin yelled from the kitchen.

"Hey! Can I borrow one of the Aussie liners please! I can't understand what this man just said!"

Felix and Chan looked at each other.

"Your turn.", Chan said.

"Why does he keep watching Aussie youtubers if he doesn't know what they're saying..."

----------------------------------------------------------

Seungmin was on the couch in his favorite duck onesie.

The little was heavily invested in an episode of Adventure Time.

"Whoa! Fire princess so pretty!", the little said.

Chan stood in the dining room with the other members.

"It may help and make Seungmin more comfortable to talk about his insecurities.", he stated.

"So you want us to talk about our insecurities?", Changbin asked.

"Yes. Now I know all of us have some."

"I know I do. Everyday I look in the mirror and wonder if it will ever get better."

Everyone looked at Hyunjin.

"Don't look at me like that. I said what I said."

"Okay were having a private conversation later.", Chan told him.

The members walked into the living room, each one of them taking seats where avaliable.

When Chan sat down next to Seungmin, the little leaned onto him, holding is hand.

"Minnie baby, can we talk to you about something?", Chan asked.

"What want talk about dada?"

"Well...I was on the computer earlier...and I saw your recent searches about your smile."

Seungmin sat up quickly.

"Uh...I sorry Dada! I just wan to fix smile."

"You don't need to fix your smile honey. It's absolutely stunning.", Jisung said.

"But...fans no like it."

"Those aren't real fans. They're mean people who try to put others down.", Minho said.

Seungmin pouted, looking down.

"Baby, we all have our own insecurities too.", Chan told him.

"Like what?", Seungmin asked.

"I'll go first.", Changbin started, "Since our pre debut days, I have been made fun of for the way I rap."

Everyone listened to him.

"People say my flow is weird, they say I don't make sense. At one point, I believed them. But...I found my style and I'm working with it."

"So you no listen to them?", Seungmin asked.

"Part of me still does. But I try my best to get through it."

Seungmin nodded.

"For me...well...it's everything."

Seungmin turned to Hyunjin. He saw his eyes watering.

"The way I sing, the way I rap, my dancing, all of it. People call me talentless. People say I'm only here because of my looks. I don't even think I'm that good looking."

Hyunjin wiped his eyes.

Seungmin got up, going to hug him.

"But I try, every single day, to fight back. I try to prove to them that I won't let it get to me. If I believe I am good, I will be. Right?"

The members agreed.

Seungmin continued to hug Hyunjin tightly.

"As for me, well I am similar to Hyunjin.", Jeongin said.

"You are?", Seungmin asked.

"I am. People seem to think that I'm a spoiled brat who can't do anything for himself. They see me as less than compared to you all, they see me as someone who shouldn't be a part of this group."

"But that not true Innie!", Seungmin said.

"I know baby. I know..."

Felix cleared his throat.

"For me, and im also speaking for Jisung here, it's...my face and my voice."

Seungmin sat down.

"Some people think all I have to offer is a deep voice and a cute face to contrast. But that's not all there is to me."

"On my side, people would make fun of every little thing about me. Facial expressions, the way my voice sounded on songs, my smile...", Jisung said.

He looked down.

Minho put an arm around him.

"But we worked on ourselves, and realized that none of it was true.", Felix said.

Seungmin agreed.

"And for me...well I'm sure you all know.", Minho started.

The members listened closely.

"People think I'm mean spirited. They judge me based on a facial expression and think they know my entire personality. Well, that's not me. It never was."

"Our point here Seungmin...", Chan said, "is that people lie to make you feel bad. People want to tear you down, they want to get rid of a beautiful smile like yours."

"You really think my smile beautiful?"

"We all do honey. It's the prettiest one I've ever seen.", Jisung said.

"Even better than mine.", Changmin said smiling.

The members laughed.

Seungmin did too, flashing his pretty smile.

"There you go! Look how cute you are little man.", Minho said.

Seungmin blushed, pulling the hood of his onesie over his face.

Chan lifted it, staring at Seungmin.

"Don't let anyone take that smile away from you baby. Okay?"

"Okay dada. I won't!"

"Good. Now smile again so I can take a photo to brag about how cute my baby is in the 97 croup chat."
